Imperial Valley Birds, Lots of Them

Around the Salton Sea you could pretty much look in any direction and see birds in mass quantity whether in the water, flying in air or in the agricultural fields of the Imperial Valley.

I had to photograph these birds from in the car leaning across the passenger side with my tripod wedged between the door and the car seat because they freak out in total chaos at the slightest hint of movement.

Thanks guys. Getting the blur was kind of a surprise to me. Since I was balancing the camera precariously in the car, I was trying to get a somewhat decent shutter speed. Good thing that didn’t quite happen.
